Overall, this is a good piece of furniture and well made. However, there are gaps at the top of two of the doors due to manufacturers measurements being off. The wood at the base is too long which created a gap in the bottom of the left closet section and affected the left and middle doors. For the price of this piece, I would think that this problem wouldnt exist. I cannot comment on the difficulty of assembly as my husband , father in law, and brother in law put it together so it did not take too long. My husband did say that he probably could not have put it together by himself as the instructions were confusing. Thankfully, my father in law works in construction and is good woth building things!
